kanya is a light roast from rwanda, produced by artisan roast leith walk. it's processed naturally, meaning the coffee cherry is dried whole, which tends to draw out sweeter, fruit-forward or tea-like qualities. in the cup, kanya sits firmly in delicate territory, with black tea and tea-like characteristics that make it clean and gentle rather than bold or heavily sweet. because of the light roast, it responds well to lower brew temperatures and slower methods that let the subtle flavors come through without turning sharp or thin.

about artisan roast leith walk

leith walk has always had its own rhythm, a bit rougher and more lived-in than the new town postcards, and that suits artisan roast at 72-74 leith walk just fine. this isn't a place that smooths its edges for tourists. the roasting operation is genuine, not decorative, and if you care about where your coffee comes from and how it's been treated before it reaches the cup, you'll find the conversation here worth having. leith itself rewards the detour: it's a stretch of the city with real texture, and the cafe sits inside that rather than apart from it. come on a weekday morning before the street fully wakes up, and a flat white here is a decent reason to be out early.
